Machines often have firmware that perform some action before Linux is
loaded. It's useful to know how this firmware is configured, so create a
sysfs directory and some properties that a system can choose to expose
to describe how the system was started.

Currently the intended use describes four files, relating to hardware
root of trust configuration.

These properties are populated by platform code at startup. Using fixed
values is suitable as the state that the system booted in will not
change after firmware has handed over.

v2:
 - Rewrite so properties are present in common code and are exposed based
   on the is_visible callback.
 - Use sysfs_emit
v3:
 - drop uart_boot
 - Add kerneldoc to header
 - Rename en -> present
 - Rename val -> value
 - Drop unncessary __init from header
 - Wrap macro in do { } while(0)

It isn't January anymore :)

I do not understand what you mean by "how it was started".

How?  This should be very firmware specific.

What are the valid values of this file?

If this file is not present what does that mean?

What is a "low security" key?  What is a "development key"?  What are
the valid values here?

If creating the group fails, shouldn't you remove the kobject?

The patch was sent on Feb 4, I would expect that to be close enough. Does this
need to be the month of the kernel release it is merged into instead?

The original patch was specific to a particular SoC vendor. Since the
information provided here is fairly generic in the end, I asked for
the interface
to be generalized to the point that it can be reused across multiple
vendors and architectures.

That's usually best, but at least the month the patch was sent in is
good.

Also I notice there's no "who is responsible for this" entry here.

Ok, and is that what this interface provides?
